Ok, the above was a bit too compromised. The official communication channels within the project of course also includes the ways the developers are expected to work together; i.e also bugzilla and the various required mailing lists. Whether IRC is official communication channel is more of an interesting discussion; as it is not a required medium for developers, but it is definitely close due to the amount of work that is being done over it. but from a PR perspective the official communication channels are the website and mailing list announcements (that for us acts as press releases) -- Kristian Fiskerstrand OpenPGP keyblock reachable at hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net fpr:94CB AFDD 3034 5109 5618 35AA 0B7F 8B60 E3ED FAE3
